: Grand Adventure
We are back from our
Grand Adventure. We had a marvellous time. We were
only away 2 week but there was so much to see and explore it
felt more like 2 months away. A full review will be coming
shortly.
As
you can see filming is well under way now for a new series which
will start airing in January 2010.
The TV producers, Orion TV, Say that this is going to be bigger
and better than any other TV series I've ever done.
All
I know is that its taking 2 and and sometimes 3 days to make 1
half hour programme. So these things are packed full of
information. The other thing of course is that they are not just
in the north east as the last series were. These are going to be
filmed all over the country and the next 2 we are making are
down in Kent.
The series is going to take the whole of the summer to film as
you will be checking out the
diary. This is because the
production company have to take me whenever they can get me
because I'm not in the habit of cancelling other things such as
art societies for filming. Hopefully its going to be a long hot
summer.

Christmas broth, what more can
you ask for.

about. Workshops for complete

painted before, all tuition is
easy to follow, step by step and

Some of our most popular workshops are
based outdoors in and around our local
area here in Northumberland.
The workshops are based in the studio which we use just in case the
weather turns against us. With the weather
on our side, we will travel out each day
to paint locations such as Druridge Bay,
Warkworth Castle, The River Coquet and
various barns and little hideaways in
the immediate area.
